I've never used the command adb remount. Only adb shell and adb devices.

If I use adb shell it doesnt let me push files into certain folders. It says push is not a command... I'm trying to change my bootscreen

Hmm, I would help you if I could, but I don't know the steps for changing the boot screen. I haven't had the need for adb remount, sorry.

DONATE TO ME
I've also never used the adb remount, but as for your comment about pushing... push isn't ran from "adb shell"

you should be doing "adb push <file to push> /path/to/where/it/goes/<file>"

Of course this needs root and, in places where the NAND is mounted as read only, you must do the remount option with r/w

There are tons of guides on how to do this on our forum, but I'm too lazy to find them.
Samsung Captivate
Google Galaxy Nexus (GSM)
Google Nexus 7

The thing is, I'm already rooted so I don't know why I can't do those commands. I will try to mount with "adb remount r/w"?
